Retrofit and Repair of Reinforced Concrete Walls with Fiber-Reinforced Polymers
Author: Roman Titov
Enhance your knowledge of structural repair techniques with this course on retrofitting and repairing reinforced concrete walls using Fiber-Reinforced Polymers (FRP). Drawing from NIST’s extensive review of experimental investigations. This course explores how FRP can improve structural resilience, increase safety in seismic zones, and reduce long-term maintenance costs. Gain valuable insights into the materials, configurations, and best practices for FRP application in real-world scenarios.
Learning Objectives
This course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understand the role of Fiber-Reinforced Polymers (FRP) in retrofitting and repairing reinforced concrete walls.
- Identify the types of wall specimens and experimental methods used in FRP performance evaluation.
- Analyze the advantages of various FRP materials, including carbon, glass, and natural fibers.
- Explore different FRP configurations and their impact on structural integrity and resilience.
- Recognize the existing research gaps and future opportunities in FRP retrofitting and repair.
